An exciting concert, performed by Joseph and Anthony Paratore on two pianos, features four groundbreaking works by twentieth century composers.One caused a riot, two were immediately popular, growing with the years in audience esteem and one remains important as exploration of the infinite possibilities of music.
Igor Stravinsky's groundbreaking piece "The Rite Of Spring" is considered the most famous composition of the early twentieth century.George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" and "Concerto in F" are two of the most popular pieces by an American composer for orchestra, and are among the first classical compositions to be influenced by jazz.Charles Ives is a uniquely individualistic American composer.His iconoclastic and rarely performed work "Three Quarter Tone Pieces" is featured as a tribute to the composer and his musical vision.
